[FOSCA]
I am writing to you, Signora
Just as soon as I've arrived
With a most unhappy heart
I do not wish
To cause you pain
So please consider what I say
With calm
My heart
My heart belongs
My heart belongs to someone else
I am in love
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love
And am loved
Hopelessly in turn, Signora
You and I
We're not meant for each other
If I seemed to imply
Something more
I apologize
But since we're forced to be together
Let us try to face the fact
Let us both behave with tact
If this letter seems cold-hearted
It conceals my own distress
Nonetheless
We must end what never started
You must recognize
There is nothing between us
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
[GIORGIO]
God
You are so beautiful
As I remember every night
Clear and beautiful
Every night, every day
Every part of you
[CLARA]
You feel so good
As if you'd never been away
Your breath so warm
Your touch so sure
[GIORGIO]
Your skin so delicate
[CLARA]
Your arms so strong
[CLARA & GIORGIO]
All this happiness
Being here with you in the dark
So much happiness
Even more than what I felt before!
To feel your touch again
When so much time has pa**ed
To dream of you and then
To be with you again
And have some time at last
How long were we apart
A month, a week, a day?
To feel your touch again
You've never been away
[CLARA]
Still, I've missed you
So much
[GIORGIO]
I'm here now
[CLARA]
Welcome home
